Good book, Awful reader
- As a former "Yooper" I always try to read novels based in the UP. Most aren't much but The Big Seven is pretty good. Jim Meskimem is one of the worst "professionals" I've ever had the misfortune to run across however. He mispronounces what I'd guess are more than half of the place names. His delivery is choppy & without emotion. He makes a pretty good book into something less than it should be.
